LOWER EAST SIDE — A 34-year-old woman lost her white and gold iPhone 6 phone at a bus stop last week, police said.

The woman was sitting on a bench on the northeast corner of Clinton and Grand streets at around 7:45 a.m.  on May 26 when she set the phone down next to her to tie her daughter’s shoe, according to the NYPD.

Police said she realized the phone, worth $816, was missing when she tried to check it approximately three minutes later. She did not recall anyone standing near the bench, according to the NYPD.
